Gérard, everyone !
When my children were Young, i used the book from Gordon "Efficient parents". It is about active listening.
http://www.gordontraining.com/parent-programs/parent-effectiveness-training-p-e-t/
Parent Effectiveness Training (P.E.T.) offers proven communication skills that really work. When they use these skills, parents are amazed with the dramatic improvement both in their families and in all their relationships.
